Happy Easter. Pope Francis was *Zucked* ... sorry @Pontifex, take it up with Menlo Park.
Who wants to tell @SenWarren? I nominate @SenMarkey.
Narendra Modi. No biggie.
Let’s keep with the theme of world leaders breached by Facebook, Alex.
Jair Messias Bolsonaro.
Red hot, Alex. Let’s stay with this category. World leaders for $500. Have you been Zucked? 🇵🇰
Ok for $400, world leaders again. Have you been Zucked, 🇹🇷 ?
Ok, let’s go to our good friends north of the border, 🇨🇦. Recall Facebook argued with @CharlieAngusNDP, Canada didn’t even have jurisdiction. @beynate @AHousefather will be interested in this.
Last one in this category, we’ll head back across the pond to 🇬🇧.
Let’s move over to the category of Sports ⚽️ stars, Alex. For $500... sorry, @Cristiano.
Always a battle, Messi won’t be left out of being Zucked.
And let’s move to the most followed celebrity entertainers. @rihanna avoided the breach but not this female superstar.
Another widely followed pop music star of social media.
Will Smith, these are some of the most heavily followed people on the planet...on Facebook.
Sorry, broken thread continues here.
Snap. don’t fell my kids that Harry Potter’s email and phone number may be available from a data breach on Facebook?
Ok, one last Member of Congress. Considering Zuckerberg wouldn’t answer his awareness timeline of their previous largest breach, @aoc will want to know her recovery phone # and personal data may have been in this breach.
Ok, I’m done with my playing jeopardy to see who got caught up in this breach. Facebook called it *old news* but I bet you none of those world leaders and celebrities were informed they were swept up in it.
Alright folks. Yes, that site above ⬆️ was popped up recently so I didn’t link to it. If you want to check if you’re part of this breach or any others, highly recommend @haveibeenpwned, run by Troy Hunt. He just added phone #s as a lookup.
Also, pointing out the obvious here, Facebook should have had a role in notifying and securing the data.

wow. NdCal just denied Facebook's attempt to dismiss securities suit for Cambridge Analytica cover-up. Court says plaintiffs credibly alleged Zuckerberg and Sandberg knew it "possessed over 40mil user profiles" way earlier. 4th amended complaint added/redacted cited evidence. /1 Image
Image
Count I, II and III now proceed, all alleged (civil) violations of 1934 SEC Act including over $5B in stock sales by Zuckerberg. This is the case Facebook already took up to SCOTUS to be denied cert. In DE, they settled similar case as director Andreessen was set to testify. /2 Image
In this case, the executive defendants are Zuckerberg, Sandberg and CFO Wehner. What is interesting is it's added new evidence squeezed out more recently in courts including Court sanctions against Sandberg for deleting "relevant emails" over a pseudonymous gmail account. /3 Image

Big. A major new law & tech paper takes on the economics of behavioral advertising - the kind that tracks users across multiple businesses and contexts, not just on sites they choose to visit.
It challenges industry’s favorite claim: that tracking is a “win-win” for everyone. /1 Image
Bear with my thread. You may know I've been sharing Google and Meta monopoly abuse concerns for nearly a decade (courts now ruling). That said, I've always said ubiquitous data collection across the web (mostly NOT on the duopoly's own services!) is what fuels their dominance. /2 Image
At the heart of the debate is this Figure 1 - and two very different ways to frame it.
Framing #1 (the industry narrative): Data aka 'signal' -> Better targeting -> More relevant ads -> More revenue -> Free content -> Everyone wins!
Simple. Elegant. But entirely misleading. /3 Image

The 8hr video of Jack Smith’s testimony was released by Congress on New Years’ Eve in between Epstein and Venezuela. It’s an extraordinary display of Smith’s integrity and attention to justice and fairness on 1/6. Allison Gill deserves praise for curating the key clips. 1/4
Smith clearly represents all who worked towards justice and public interest, expressing his confidence and rationale he had the evidence to prove Jan 6th case to a jury. He also shows his gratitude to those retaliated against - in just doing their jobs. This stood out to me. 2/4
I must say I’m impressed by Covington & Burling law firm who has stood strong during this retaliation. This is just 1/6 - they’ve worked with Smith to be cautious to not discuss any confidential details in his classified docs report still sealed by Judge Cannon. (1.3x to fit) 3/4

So many mind blowing sentences in this just incredible Wall Street Journal report. Starting here, “Witkoff, who hasn’t traveled to Ukraine this year, is set to visit Russia for the sixth time next week and will again meet Putin. He insisted he isn’t playing favorites.” /1
“Inside were details of the commercial and
economic plans the Trump administration had been pursuing with Russia, including jointly mining rare earths in the Arctic.” /2 Image
“European official asked Witkoff to start speaking with allies over the secure fixed line Europe's heads of state use to conduct sensitive
diplomatic conversations. Witkoff demurred, as he traveled too much to use the cumbersome system.” /3

Saturday’s “No Kings” protests have filled front pages across America with impactful visuals and headlines of peaceful protests. Many included the eye popping NYC Times Square shot. Here in the Dothan Eagle (Alabama). But everyone turned out. See Montana in its Missoulian. /1 Image

Plenty of big city energy from St. Louis, Missouri to Chicago, Illinois. /2 Image

Midwest with Cleveland, Ohio to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. /3 Image

US v Google remedies: Nothing groundbreaking from return of DOJ’s star economist this morning. Court tested if his concerns over solely behavioral remedies assume distrust in Google (won’t follow court orders). I don’t think it mattered relative to where we were last night... /1
Yes, some will read as leaning against structural-remedy interest. I took it simply her clarifying she doesn’t need to lean on distrust if structural is shown tech feasible. Although witness pointed out distrust harms competition investment levels. /2
Court also very much nodded head when witness Lee explained why he didn’t do “but for” analysis to a dollar amount. Mehta also determined in search it was infeasible and unnecessary so cross that out of Google’s defense imho. /3
